mastodon/federation questions:

suppose kat\@catgirl.social follows bun\@bunnies.club , and does not follow buck\@bunnies.club . nobody at catgirl.social follows Buck at all.

I understand the catgirls.social will show Bun's toots on the federated timeline, but not Buck's, right?

suppose Buck toots something with the hashtag ＃acab.

• will the federated timeline at catgirls.social show that toot?
• if Kat searches for the hashtag, will it show that toot?
• if Bun likes Buck's toot, will that make catgirls.social know about it?
• if Bun replies to Buck's toot, will that make catgirls.social know about it?
• any more interesting tidbits about which triggers make an instance know about a toot?

@darckcrystale

what about the conditions mentioned in the questions above? (i.e. hashtagged toot from remote instance that is federating, but not from any user that is followed; toot that is interacted with by remote user who is followed, but not boosted)?

(looks at recent posts) hmmm interesting! it would seem that being heavily sleep deprived and not eating makes one anxious and irritable. how curious
